I cleaned out an old tank with a 1/4" thick layer of "varnish" at the
bottom using a gallon of lacquer thinner. Let it sit in there and soak for
a few days and it broke up most of the crud, I probably threw in some
marbles to shake around and finish the job, but don't recall. I didn't want
to use anything too abrasive since there was no visible rust yet.

I cleaned out the clogged fuel exit tube with a piece of thick weed whacker
line (the kind with ridges) - chucked it in my cordless drill and went down
the tube with it until it was clear all the way to the tank.
